Almost 4 million UK households live in medium and low rise apartment buildings, with the roof space for solar but, until recently, no way of accessing energy generated from it.

We didn’t think this was fair, so we developed a world-first technology, SolShare™️, which enables fair sharing of solar energy from a single rooftop solar PV system amongst multiple dwellings within the same building.

This breaks down the technical and ownership barriers that have historically prevented apartment residents from accessing free, clean energy from the sun. Born in Australia in 2015, Allume is now rapidly growing across three continents.

This technical CPD examines the unique design and compliance barriers to adopting solar PV in apartment buildings.

Attendees will gain a critical understanding of how SAP 10.2 mandate direct PV connection to individual flats to increase energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions, as energy generated on-site is credited directly to the flat's consumption, not the landlord's meter.

The session contrasts the complexities of traditional, space-intensive PV systems for flats with shared solar solutions.

It focuses on how a solar PV sharing device can:

*   Simplify M\&E design and installation.
*   Enable tailorable kWp allocation to resolve specific flat-level EPC discrepancies.
*   Boost SAP & EPC performance.

Real-world applications are reviewed, demonstrating how shared solar integration supports clients with their low-carbon and net-zero goals.

**Approved by CIBSE. A CPD certificate will be issued and CPD points can be claimed.**
